CS Modules
NewBoCo Education, in collaboration with Code.org, is thrilled to introduce four separate virtual training modules designed for K–12 educators across the country who are eager to bring computer science (CS) to life in their classrooms. These interactive sessions equip 5th–9th grade teachers with innovative tools and engaging resources to empower students through hands-on CS activities and concepts.
Code.org + Science
Virtual Event | March 3, 6-8pm CST
Explore the CS Connections modules that are designed to integrate computer science concepts in other subject areas, including science. This session will focus on the science modules: Simulating a Marine Ecosystem and Modeling Animal Adaptations. In the modules, students use programming to create simulations of scientific phenomena. This could include modeling ecosystems, chemical reactions, or physical systems to explore how they work and to test hypotheses.
Focus on Data
Virtual Event | April 7, 6-8pm CST
This unit empowers students to use data to solve problems by engaging with computer science as a medium for creativity, communication, problem-solving, and fun. Educators will learn about the updates to this unit over the past couple of years as well as how this unit can integrate with mathematics.
Music Lab
Virtual Event | May 5, 6-8pm CST
This professional learning module is designed to prepare you to teach Code.org’s Programming with Music Lab curriculum. This curriculum, for grades 6-10, is an engaging, hands-on dive into the worlds of computer science, music, and problem solving.
Completed for this season
AI and Machine Learning
Virtual Event | February 3, 6-8pm CST
The AI and Machine Learning unit in Code.org’s CS Discoveries course introduces students to fundamental concepts in artificial intelligence and machine learning through engaging, hands-on activities. In the unit, students explore how AI systems work by examining real-world applications such as recommendation algorithms and image recognition. This unit aims to demystify AI and empower students with a foundational understanding of how machine learning drives innovation in various fields.
